2019 Nissan Navara 2.3L Diesel · YB19 PMP

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a pattern of reactive rather than proactive upkeep. The most recent test in November 2025 at 34,741 miles identified thin rear brake pads, continuing a recurring cycle where braking components are only addressed as they approach failure limits. While the vehicle passed its latest inspection, the persistent nature of brake wear suggests that the owner waits for MOT advis to perform repairs rather than following scheduled service intervals. At 34,741 miles, the Navara has low mileage for its age, averaging approximately 5,000 miles per year. There is a notable gap in usage between the August 2022 test at 18,593 miles and the July 2023 test at 25,753 miles, where the vehicle covered over 7,000 miles in eleven months. This low mileage often reduces wear on the drivetrain but can lead to surface corrosion on exposed metal components, which aligns with the pitted and scored front discs noted in the 2023 record. A buyer must inspect the front braking system thoroughly, as the history shows worn discs and thin pads flagged across the 2023 and 2024 tests. The 2023 failure also highlighted rear tyres worn on the edge, which often indicates alignment issues or worn suspension bushes that should be verified to prevent further premature tyre degradation. Given the low mileage, check for signs of cracking in rubber components and seizing on the brake calipers, as the vehicle may have sat for long periods between uses.
